In my opinion others experiences with grips are worthless for another individual. Hogue is very popular but they don't fit all hands, like mine. When I got my Ruger Redhawk in .44 mag. I went through about six different grips, including Houges in rubber and wood, before settling on Pachymar Presentations. None fit me except the PPs and I love them. You have to try. Many gun shops have 'try' display models.
